Scalable Nearline Storage Servers

With the continued storage file explosion and the need for high-volume scalable capacity, choosing the correct storage solution strategy hinges upon having the storage scalability to grow seamlessly from 1 Terabyte to 1 Petabyte. Aberdeen can help to design the best possible scalable storage solution whether it is one of our storage servers or a custom configured rackmount server.

Now with the expandable 64TB Terazilla and the scalable 100TB Teralith, Aberdeen strives to continuously improve upon its success.  As a result, Aberdeen is the first company to provide SAS expandable storage to scale higher than 400TB. There are also options to use SAS or SATA hard drives and implement either Intel Xeon or AMD Opteron Quad-Core processors.

Aberdeen's Stirling servers anchor the robust array of fully customizable, performance tuned, storage dense servers on the market. By offering servers scalable from 4TB up to 400TB of storage capacity, upgrading to Stirling servers can result in an estimated 8 month return on investment. This latest iteration of the Stirling storage servers will demonstrate the performance of the next generation Intel® 5520 chipset in conjunction with the Intel® Xeon® processor 5500 series.

New advancements incorporated in the Stirling enterprise-grade storage servers include the Intel 5520 Chipset and dual socket Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series processors with 45nm fabrication. The Intel® microarchitecture, formerly codenamed Nehalem, featuring Intel® Turbo Boost Technology, improves performance by increasing processor frequency and enabling faster speeds. The Intel® Intelligent Power Technology allows for the lowering of energy costs by minimizing individual core power consumption to nearly zero power usage when applicable. Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology support provides optimization for demands of multi-core processing and unleashes parallel processing performance enabled by Intel® QuickPath technology. The Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series also features integrated memory controller.

New features include: up to 96GB triple channel DDR3 memory capacity, maximum memory bandwidth up to 32GB/s, redundant power chassis, simultaneous SATA/SAS hard drive integration and an increased emphasizes on expandability via SAS expansion. Aberdeen's largest storage platform available, the Stirling X888, stores up to 50TB of network-level data and can expand via cascading JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks) units and XDAS Direct Attached Storage RAID subsystems up to an additional 400TB.

Aberdeen continues to ease server deployment concerns with an unparalleled 5-year limited warranty. With Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series, the Stirling servers combine to deliver an exceptional performance to value ratio for Aberdeen customers. Businesses in search of boosting server responsiveness for data-intensive applications and business-critical services can confidently consolidate more servers by utilizing built-in processor virtualization technologies. Additionally, the Aberdeen line of Stirling storage servers can be configured as Network Attached Storage appliances employing either Linux-based NAS or Windows-based NAS.

Delivering more flexible and scalable solutions, the complete Aberdeen line of storage servers satisfy the need for high-volume data transfer speeds for professionals in digital media creation, film, video, audio, animation, game design, and broadcast companies, streaming media, HD video storage, CCTV, security and gaming surveillance, data backup, near-line media storage and post-production needs.
